My new review of Mariusz Wilczyński's Kill It And Leave This Town is up on Video Librarian. This film serves as an exemplary personal work showcasing the ways in which artists can find solace and relief in their creations. videolibrarian.com/reviews/film/k…

A- CinemaScore for OBSESSION. Same as WEAPONS. Only the 6th horror movie since 2019 to get an A- or higher CONGRATS TEAM!!! Go see it.

THESE ARE MY FRIENDS! (2026) | dir. Aaron Bartuska

Rounding up everything I saw at PFS Springfest, link in reply

THESE ARE MY FRIENDS! - A Philly-based hangout film that very accurately captures a specific time and place — what’s not to love?? Apologies to the one dude, though: Hadestown was lame as Hell. Pun not intended, but I’m happy it occurred. @phillyfilmsoc #SpringFest

If DAZED AND CONFUSED was Philly-based and took place in one apartment, you’d get THESE ARE MY FRIENDS. Way more than your run-of-the-mill party film. A hysterical, yet poignant portrait of embracing yourself in a socially constructed landscape. Very much my jam!

@therealdsube Thanks so much for coming!!

THESE ARE MY FRIENDS!: whaddya know, it's pretty charming! Loose and wandering, better acting than you'd expect, really won me over by the end. Solid and sincere (B/B+) #pfs #springfest26
